Doorman player abusing 6 different bugs and unintended interactions to ruin the game for 50 minutes

[barlakopofai]

This would make a good feedback thread, but all of what you are describing at the moment is intentional game design. Pocket can buy cheat death, go in, pop a six-man affliction, proc cheat death, then cloak out. Yet you do not complain about his ability to do that. Or literally any other character with insane mobility being able to easily get away after proccing cheat death.

Because Pocket is actually countered by slowing hex. Pocket cannot cloak away if you silence him. Pocket can't walk straight back into his spawn to heal from mid. Pocket doesn't require your team to have specific characters who can shove him out of his briefcase. Pocket doesn't survive curse. That's exclusive to the doorman. But for some reason, when it's the Doorman doing it, you're all absolutely convinced IT'S BOTH NORMAL AND INTENTIONAL

The Doorman

If it was not intentional, it would have been "fixed" a year ago the week Doorman came out. I will concede as I do not have the time or energy to keep dragging this on. But, please submit a feedback thread. You are screaming into a void currently.

These are not bugs but intentional interactions with Doorman's kit, his role, and the item system. If you do not feel these interactions are healthy then go give the devs some feedback! Until then, have a good day!

You do realize that fountain hooking was a bug, and it took valve 3+ years and a ruined TI tournament to acknowledge it and remove it from the game? Just because two items or abilities interact in a specific way does not mean Valve intends for it to be in the game, it just means they haven't fixed it, alright? Doorman being able to safespot objectives is 100% not intentional game design, they've been trying to fix that the entire time he's been in the game. Doorman carting people into his spawn from the mid boss is not intentional game design, they were trying to fix that when they nerfed every single range item in the game last patch. Just because it's in the game doesn't mean it's intentional.

Well thank you for providing a concrete example of how brainrotted the community has become about this dumbass character abusing bugs every fucking game. By the way just as a reminder, we already know what Valve's stance on fountain hooking from anywhere on the map is, it's a bug, they're gonna remove it from the game the moment it shows up in a pro game

i mean, if you'd like to explain to me how this is cheating/bug abusing without just insulting me, please go ahead. If your arugment is simply these mechanics are things i don't like, please stop them, then there's nothing this forum can do for you.

As i mentioned already, if there's an actual bug or glitch with the door that lets him shoot objectives without being harmed, then that's a bug that should be fixed (as objectives should be invulnerable if nothing is physcially nearby to it). But if it's just the concept of being able to shoot through doors then, i guess this is just a skill diff lol

I was stupid and used the wrong word, it was exploit, which is usually right next to bug abuse when you report someone.

 

[lukshan]

Okay... Exploit then lmao. My point still stands.

Using an item available to everyone in shop isn't an exploit. Cheat death also has a very easy counter
Using a door also isn't an exploit, it's an item. Some characters can teleport. Some characters can go invunerable. Some can become untargetable.

If there is actually bug abuse or exploiting then fine. But as someone else poined out, that match you shared just showed you meleeing into a wall as you wiffed your hits. It's a skill diff.

No it doesn't. Your entire argument crumbles the moment the word changes from bug abuse to exploit. Sharpshooter was available to every venator.

 

[lukshan]

What? What are you even on about lol. What? There's no explot or bug or anything being used here?

The only bug here is your skill diff
